  2. Finite set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_set

    At that time, model theory was not sufficiently advanced to find the counter-examples. Each of the properties I-finite thru IV-finite is a notion of smallness in the sense that any subset of a set with such a property will also have the property. This is not true for V-finite thru VII-finite because they may have countably infinite subsets.

  3. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  4. List of small groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_small_groups

    Each group is named by Small Groups library as G o i, where o is the order of the group, and i is the index used to label the group within that order.. Common group names: Z n: the cyclic group of order n (the notation C n is also used; it is isomorphic to the additive group of Z/nZ)

  5. Finite field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_field

    In mathematics, a finite field or Galois field (so-named in honor of Évariste Galois) is a field that contains a finite number of elements.As with any field, a finite field is a set on which the operations of multiplication, addition, subtraction and division are defined and satisfy certain basic rules.

  6. Finite group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_group

    In abstract algebra, a finite group is a group whose underlying set is finite. Finite groups often arise when considering symmetry of mathematical or physical objects, when those objects admit just a finite number of structure-preserving transformations. Important examples of finite groups include cyclic groups and permutation groups.

  7. Finite ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_ring

    In mathematics, more specifically abstract algebra, a finite ring is a ring that has a finite number of elements. Every finite field is an example of a finite ring, and the additive part of every finite ring is an example of an abelian finite group, but the concept of finite rings in their own right has a more recent history.

  8. Finite field arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_field_arithmetic

    By making a modular multiplicative inverse table for the finite field and doing a lookup. By mapping to a composite field where inversion is simpler, and mapping back. By constructing a special integer (in case of a finite field of a prime order) or a special polynomial (in case of a finite field of a non-prime order) and dividing it by a. [7]

    In mathematics education, Finite Mathematics is a syllabus in college and university mathematics that is independent of calculus. A course in precalculus may be a prerequisite for Finite Mathematics.
